Akita Nero

Akita Nero is the assumed little brother of Akita Neru. He is also a product of so-called anti-Miku campaign.

Design
He has short blond hair and wears sleeveless shirt, knee-length yellow pants and yellow-and-black striped socks. He is sometimes depicted as wearing an outfit similar to Neru's, consisting of a gray sleeveless shirt, a yellow tie, and black pants.

Personality and traits
As per fandom, he is depicted to be more open and a little vain, a contrast to the mostly-tsundere depictions common to Akita family members. However, in Japan, Nero's kinship and his age of 13 years old is considered unofficial.

Recognition of Nero in the overseas community is modest to significant.

Biography
Contrary to popular belief, Nero is a creation of Smith Hioka, and did not originate from Rena-tan (formerly; Hankyou). Nero's origins is connected to Neru herself.

In October of 2007, Miku's pictures became unavailable to search in main search engines in Japan, which incident led to the birth of Neru. Most search engines became normal again in a few days, but Yahoo! Japan showed unusual results nearly for a month. On November 21, 2007, the 2ch board discussed in the thread 2 Miku related news, that abnormalities were noted. After the report, the company seemed to debug the search engine according to each of the 2ch user's indications. Soon the users made a spoof character Nero as "Neru's younger brother and a Yahoo! programmer who was debugging the program manually". His concept art was released on the following day.

Notable media
